How's Kalifornia Going To Get Aroudn This?

Well here's one for you AR haters. Remember some of the complaints. I it's ackward. I don't like assualt type pistol grips. Well you need to check out FightLite's AR rifles. While you're at it check out their AR pistols!!! Finally someone came up with a new buffer and buffer tube system that gets rid of that AR straightline stock.

That is pretty neat. I think they need a wood butt stock version plus a wood forearm too. Then if it is wood, it would look normal. They could laminate the wood to make it super strong too. It would look quite attractive with a wood butt stock and forearm.

If they use Remington shotgun type stocks they might sell a bunch of them as rifles. The trigger groups remind me of ones used on 870,1100, 11/87, 7400, 7600 ect. Wonder how the cheek weld is on the stock with a scope.

And in the 25+ months I spent in RVN, MAC-V SOG Advisory Teams (think spooks) and in a Ranger company having one of those "ugly" rifles in my hands saved my life perhaps a hundred times... I never saw any "needless death..." in all that time either. I saw enemy soldiers killed, but the ones I killed kept me and my team alive on numerous occasions. Like all of them.

you might have seen "your date walk out of the men's room stall" but I never had that problem.

AR's and old model 70's are both tools, just like your tool chest should have both a tack hammer and a 4lb baby sledge.

I like it because it's going to cause the liberal domestic enemies in Kali some consternation.
I don't find the "black guns" to be very appealing. Last semi auto rifle made that I have a real hankerin' for is an M1A. Don't care for the composite or glass stocks. Give me wood and metal any day.

That has been around for quite awhile and is an answer to the no AR laws in CA.

I think they are also targeting NY.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

I have a "Non-assalt weapon" Ar in California. Has a non-pistol grip stock. Did not want to bother with a bullet button. There are various ways to comply with California laws without registering your guns.

I suspect their latest CA gun control trick is the micro-stamping of a serial number on the firing pin and maybe serialized cartridges. If I remember correctly that goes into effect next year. Thus many gun manufacturers will likely stop sending guns to CA to be sold. I cannot see how micro-stamping will last more than a few shots before the firing pin tip wears it off. Or even having a micro-stamp in the chamber for that matter. At present if the court appeals and lawsuits get finished then they would enforce it. But so far it doesn't look good for the 2A in CA. If CA wins you can bet they will want it on rifles and shotguns too.

If I just read this correctly, the microstamp is supposed to imprint cartridges each time a cartridge is fired? And this is for firearm control? I just don't see the sense...

It also makes me wonder about reloading cartridges. Pretty soon there would be multiple "imprints" on each cartridge after firing & perhaps even from different firearms, including ones that are fired that don't have such tomfoolery in them. Additionally, what about the "tumbling" process. I do not know how deep "microstamping goes, but it certainly might be "disfigured" perhaps by the tumbling process.

The next issue that comes to mind is just how safe is this microstamping if the rounds are reloaded...

All of those came to mind, just from reading the posts. now I am going to read the article before I actually post this post here, to see if that is addressed there. Without yet reading it, I'd bet those ??s are not.

But it doesn't stop one from reloading though. Any imprint on the primer gets discarded with the spent primer. After a few shots, the brass case markings would be smudged a lot then, but the cases are likely still useable.

Serial /id numbering of cases etc is one of the strategies of the worldwide gun prohibition movement.Another strategy is response alarming of gun storage.Designed to load the gun owner with massive cost increases.These things seem reasonable to the general public.Every gun owner leaving California weakens the pro gun forces politically.This is the aim ,one step at a time.

Yes but the USA, unlike Australia does not have a parlimentary system in which the mob rules.

You were disarmed by the mob of liberals, with our checks and balances it would be far more difficult to disarm us as the guy who deported your ancestors found out at Lexington and Concord.

Your "government" is welcoming the Muslim invaders who are busy setting up a well armed 5th column, infiltrating all your government and military units. When we elect another Obama (as we will) and when (not if) Indonesia decides it needs "lebensraum" you will overrun in a few weeks at most. That's how it works today and always has.
